I don't know if they have walmarts where you live but the walmart where I live has a HP desktop for $800. Thers also a $300 rebate with that. They also have HP notebooks, but I haven't checked the prices.

Why not check out a site more geared towards that? You can get tons of reviews that are already written and it is more their expertise. I'm not saying that people here don't know about hardware or what to buy... you'll prolly just get better reviews/suggestions at a more proper site.

There are plenty more out there... a simple google search will yeild you tons of results.

Oh... if you are planning on building your own... I have found www.pricewatch.com to be a great site for finding what you want for cheap.

What you build depends on what you are going to use it for. Like... if you are going to play tons of games... you will want to look into something more geared towards that... or if you are going to build a server you don't need the high end video card... etc. If you're building a linux box... pick a distro and look at supported hardware... yada yada yada.

Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.
